Hi,
What does 'drama' mean here?
"Michelle tries to avoid her sister Meg's boyfriend drama, but Delia winds up getting over-involved in Meg's issues."
Thank you very much.
"Drama" in common parlance has come to mean the overblown emotional atmosphere created by self-centered people who think that their interpersonal problems are the most important thing in the world and that everybody else has to think so, too. They behave as if they are living a TV soap opera, a "daytime drama".
